Scientific Inquiry

I recently posted my "Thinking Like a Scientist" video which I made for my 6th grade Science class at work. Two kids in the class worked together to write a script for a second video. The used the text book and some ideas I gave them. They wanted to add a female character, so the Robot Chicken Mad Scientist introduces his friend at the beginning. When it was all done it needed a little tweaking. This section of the book just didn't work as well to have little entertaining cut-aways like the other video. I had them change one little part to work in a funny bit in the middle with the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.

They worked really hard on the script and it came out pretty well. I had a hard time finding a good place at school for the girl to record her lines, so it has more white noise than the lines I recorded at home. The kids had fun and the two authors had the highest scores in the class on the section quiz... so I know they learned something.

About Me

I'm a thirty-something year old who never really grew up. I love collecting action figures, watching cartoons, and reading comic books. I've been making stop motion videos with toys for about 19 years and I've been writing about toys for various websites for 15. Now I'm part of the SEO Toy Review family on YouTube.
